The Court will reject any motion that is not accompanied by a proposed form or
order in word format.
All motions, including, but not limited to, summary judgment motions, responses
and replies, that contain 5 or more exhibits shall require the filing party to do the
following:
Within 24 hours of filing a motion/response/reply that contains 5 or more
exhibits, the filing party is required to provide to the Court a copy of the
respective motion, response or reply along with all exhibits on a CD.
Each pleading on the CD shall contain hyperlinks to all exhibits attached to
your pleading and to all substantive appellate cases cited therein (you do
not need to provide hyperlinks to boilerplate case law, unless it is an unusual
or obscure citation). The hyperlink to exhibits is crucial, so that the Court
can readily locate an exhibit without undue delay.
This division requires that all motions, responses, replies and other pleadings in this
case must be submitted individually. The parties shall not combine any motion with
a responsive pleading. All motions are to be filed separately and designated as such.

UNDER ADVISEMENT RULING
Pending before the Court are (1) Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment,
filed on September 14, 2021; (2) Plaintiff’s Motion to Preclude Expert Testimony of
Alan Jones, filed September 14, 2021; (3) Defendant’s Motion to Strike Plaintiff’s

Defendant’s Motion to Strike Plaintiff’s Response to Defendant’s Motion to Strike
Plaintiff’s Reply to its Motion for Summary Judgment, filed February 28, 2022.1
The Court has considered the filings, including all statements of facts and exhibits
thereto, and the record of this case. The Court has further considered the applicable
1 Defendant has brought counterclaims. For ease of reading, the Court refers to the
parties as Plaintiff and Defendant, rather than “Plaintiff/Counterdefendant” and
“Defendant/Counterclaimant.”

case law and Rules, as well as the parties’ arguments presented at oral argument on
January 19, 2022 (as to the Motion to Preclude) and January 28, 2022 (as to the
Motion for Summary Judgment). The Court finds and orders as follows.
Motions to Strike
Defendant moves to strike Plaintiff’s reply to its summary judgment motion
and Plaintiff’s response to the first motion to strike on timeliness grounds.
The Court first addresses the second motion to strike because it concerns the
response to the first motion to strike. Defendant’s first motion to strike was filed on
February 3, 2022. Under Rule 7.1(f)(2)(B), “any responsive memorandum must be
filed within 5 days after service of the motion.” The day of filing is not counted, per
Rule 6(a)(1). Five additional days are added when service is effectuated under Rule
5(c)(2)(C). Ariz. R. Civ. P. 6(c). Weekends are not counted in the calculation, under
Rule 6(a)(2). Thus, Plaintiff’s response to the first motion to strike was due February
17, 2022. Plaintiff did not file its response until February 22, 2022. In its response
to the second motion to strike, Plaintiff concedes its response to the first motion to
strike was late, but argues it was late due to a misunderstanding of the Court’s order
that the response time would be “governed by the Rules.” 2/2/22 Minute Entry at 2.
It is unclear to the Court how that statement was interpreted as indicating Rule 7.1(f)
did not apply. The second motion to strike is granted as good cause appears.
Plaintiff’s response to Defendant’s first motion to strike is stricken, and the Court
has not considered it.
With respect to the motion to strike Plaintiff’s reply to its summary judgment
motion, Defendant’s response to the motion was filed on November 24, 2021 and
mailed the same day. Service “is complete upon the mailing,” per Rule 5(c)(2)(C).
Thus, the date of service was November 24, 2021. That day is not counted, per Rule
6(a)(1). Five additional days are added when service is effectuated under Rule
5(c)(2)(C). Ariz. R. Civ. P. 6(c). The reply was due 15 days after the response was
served. Ariz. R. Civ. P. 56(c)(2). Because the deadline was more than 11 days later,

weekends and legal holidays are included in the days to be counted. Ariz. R. Civ.
P. 6(a)(2). Therefore, Plaintiff’s reply to the Defendant’s motion for summary
judgment was due December 14, 2021. The reply was not filed until December 17,
2021, and stipulation for extension of time was not granted by Defendant. Therefore,
the reply was late. The Court will grant the first motion to strike as good cause
appears. Plaintiff’s reply to the motion to summary judgment is stricken, and the
Court has not considered it.
Motion to Preclude
Plaintiff moves to preclude the expert testimony of Alan Jones under Rule
26.1 of the Arizona Rules of Civil Procedure and Rule 702 of the Arizona Rules of
Evidence. Defendant opposes the motion.
Rule 26.1 requires that an expert’s disclosure must comply with either Rule
26.1(d)(3) or (d)(4), depending on the tier assigned to the matter. Undersigned is
not the first judicial officer assigned to this matter and reviewed the docket for the
tier assignment. It is unclear that a tier was assigned to the case, which likely
explains why Plaintiff made arguments under both rules in its motion. Based on the
Court’s review of the matter, the Court finds the case likely falls within Tier 2. In
addition, the requirements of Rule 26.1(d)(3), which applies to all cases other than
Tier 3, are less stringent than Rule 26.1(d)(4). Therefore, for purposes of resolving
this motion, the Court applies Rule 26.1(d)(3).
Rule 26.1(d)(3) provides an expert disclosure “must state” the following:
(A) the expert’s name, address, and qualifications;
(B) the subject matter on which the expert is expected to testify;
(C) the substance of the facts and opinions to which the expert is
expected to testify;
(D) a summary of the grounds for each opinion;
(E) a statement of the compensation to be paid for the expert’s work
and testimony in the case; and

(F) a list of all other cases in which, during the previous 4 years, the
witness testified as an expert at a hearing or trial.
Upon inquiry from the Court at oral argument and in her filings, Defendant
contended she has complied with Rule 26.1. Specifically, Defendant stated that her
February 28, 2020 filing and her filing “last summer” (which the Court, based on its
review of the docket, has determined was the filing entered on July 13, 2020 as
“supplement #2,” as that is the only other filing on the docket regarding Mr. Jones’
expert witness testimony filed in summer months) satisfied Rule 26.1. However,
there were three specific expert witness disclosures about Mr. Jones that were filed
by Defendant; they were filed on February 28, 2020; March 2, 2020; and July 13,
2020, respectively. Defendant also filed an affidavit by Mr. Jones, which was sworn
on November 22, 2021 and filed as a separate document in support of Defendant’s
opposition to the Motion to Preclude.
The Court has reviewed all documents proffered by Defendant in support of
the witness. Those documents indicate that Mr. Jones, who is Defendant’s husband,
is a “retired registered professional engineer.” His February 2020 “preliminary
report” was cursory and contained only seven points over two pages. 2/28/20
“Disclosure of areas of potential testimony & preliminary opinions of 2 experts –
Alan Jones.” One of those points was that he concurred fully in another expert’s
report and incorporated it into his report. Id. The final point was that “much more
will be addressed in the future.” Id. “Supplement #1,” which was filed March 2,
2020, consisted of approximately 75 pages of documents regarding Mr. Jones’
qualifications and background. In the July 2020 “supplement #2,” Mr. Jones listed
four points in addition to those contained in his preliminary report of February 2020,
including one indicating that he incorporated the other expert’s “updated
replacement report” in its entirety. 7/13/20 “supplement #2 to expert Alan Jones
preliminary report dated Feb. 28, 2020 with additional areas of potential testimony
with released documents to be used as exhibits at trial.” Again, the final point stated
that more was to come; specifically, “much more will be addressed in the future,
such as: subject matter jurisdiction, conditions precedent, violation of ADA
accommodations, violation of due process rights, purposeful violation and breach of

CC&Rs, reckless & negligent acts, 27 fraudulent answers verified by the HOA board
president, multiple false light actions, personal physical injuries intentionally and
willfully inflicted, false testimony at hearing, and more.” Id. No basis for his
“expert” opinion on the Americans with Disabilities Act and other legal issues raised
was provided.
After reviewing all of Mr. Jones’ disclosures on the docket, the Court finds
that the disclosures are deficient under Rule 26.1 in various respects. Most
importantly among them, the disclosures are devoid of the substance of Mr. Jones’
full opinions and the bases for those opinions. Although supplement #2 and the
November 2021 filing contain documentation over a number of years, Mr. Jones’
enumerated statements consist mostly of conclusory statements. The Court
recognizes that Defendant has attested in her own November 2021 affidavit in
support of her opposition to this Motion that Mr. Jones’ permanent disabilities have
hampered his ability to fully provide all possible information. She further attested
that Mr. Jones would authenticate documents and provide further information as
requested on the stand. At this juncture, based on the documents before it, the Court
would be inclined to grant the Motion to Preclude. However, in light of the rulings,
infra, the trial will be vacated, and the Motion to Preclude will be denied (without
prejudice) as moot.
Motion for Summary Judgment
Rule 56(c)(3)(B) requires that a party in opposition to a motion for summary
judgment “must file a statement in the form prescribed by Rule 56(c)(3)(A),
specifying: (i) the numbered paragraphs in the moving party's statement that are
disputed; and (ii) those facts that establish a genuine dispute or otherwise preclude
summary judgment in favor of the moving party.” Rule 56(c)(3)(A) states that the
statement of facts must be “a statement separate from the supporting memorandum”
and must set forth “the specific facts relied on,” with the facts “stated in concise,
numbered paragraphs” and with citations to “the specific part of the record where
support for each fact may be found.” Plaintiff filed its Motion for Summary

Judgment and a separate statement of facts. Defendant filed her Opposition to the
Motion, but there was no separate statement of facts filed, and the Opposition
appears to be a combination of argument and factual assertions. The Opposition
consists of a typed cover page, 22 handwritten pages, and 12 attachments. The
handwritten pages begin with Defendant’s statement, “Below are the material issues
that preclude an entry of summary judgment in [Plaintiff’s] favor.” Opp. at 1. Then,
in the 22 pages that follow, Defendant apparently responded to the paragraphs of
Plaintiff’s Statement of Facts (“SOF”) to which she did not agree. The Court
presumes this because Defendant began sections of the Opposition with a cite to a
number and a quote from the beginning of that number, which corresponded to
paragraphs of Plaintiff’s SOF. See id. (e.g., “#5 ‘In early 2015…’”). However,
Defendant’s narrative that follows is meandering, interspersed with facts that are not
pertinent to the Motion, and challenging to distill to salient legal arguments.
Defendant cited to Plaintiff’s exhibits and to her Opposition’s attachments.
However, Defendant also inserted various bits of commentary in bracketed language
such as: “[Note: When Kathryn’s bathrooms were followed with raw sewage,
Grayhawk refused to send ServPro – or any other similar service – to clean up the
mess quickly and avoid damage to Kathryn’s Unit. Kathryn herself was forced to
clean and disinfect her bathrooms herself, as Alan Jones was suffering with Valley
Fever.]” Opp. at 3. This is an example of Defendant including immaterial
allegations of fact in her Opposition. There is no memorandum of law. There is
only the 22-page statement that is essentially a disjointed factual narrative,
interwoven with quotes from Black’s Law Dictionary, Arizona Revised Statutes, and
many of Plaintiff’s previous filings in this case. Some factual assertions contain a
cite; most do not. The hundred-plus pages of attachments to the Opposition range
from photos, to an affidavit by her expert (Dr. Baker)2, to text of A.R.S. § 33-1221.
2 The Court notes that the expert affidavit regarding Dr. Baker was dated November
22, 2021, which was after the dispositive/Daubert motions deadline. Typically, any
written statement by an expert is turned over to the other side, who then has the
opportunity to have their expert review and rebut. The Court has never before seen
an affidavit by an expert that was clearly prepared in opposition to a summary
judgment motion. The usual course is to be presented with the expert opinions and

To be sure, affidavits and “other materials that would be admissible in evidence” are
permitted. Ariz. R. Civ. P. 56(c)(5)-(6). The Court has considered those documents.
Rule 56(e) provides, “When a summary judgment motion is made and
supported as provided in this rule, an opposing party may not rely merely on
allegations or denials of its own pleading. The opposing party must, by affidavits or
as otherwise provided in this rule, set forth specific facts showing a genuine issue
for trial. If the opposing party does not so respond, summary judgment, if
appropriate, shall be entered against that party.”
This Court is required to hold Defendant, who is self-represented and has
received disability accommodations from the Court upon her request, to the same
standard as counsel. Bloch v. Bentfield, 1 Ariz.App. 412, 417 (1965) (“When one
undertakes to represent himself that person is ‘entitled to no more consideration than
if’ he ‘had been represented by counsel.’ He is ‘held to the same notice of statutes
of local rules as would be attributed to a duly qualified member of the bar. Such a
rule is indispensable to the orderly and efficient administration of justice.’”) (quoting
Smith v. Rabb, 95 Ariz. 49, 53 (1963)); Maher v. Uhlman, 211 Ariz. 543, 551 (App.
2005) (“That [a party] was unrepresented did not excuse him from his burden to
diligently adhere to the court’s rules.”) (citing Homecraft Corp. v. Fimbres, 119
Ariz. 299, 301 (App. 1978)). In her filings and argument to this Court, Defendant
has shown she is able to understand and apply the Rules of Civil Procedure. Indeed,
in her motions to strike, Defendant precisely analyzed the Rules and requested that
rebuttal opinions. However, no objection to the affidavit was raised, and the Court
has considered it as part of Defendant’s Opposition. Under Rule 56(c)(5), any
affidavit in support of a summary judgment filing must set out facts that would be
admissible in evidence and properly authenticated copies of documents referred to
therein must be included. Dr. Baker’s affidavit refers to various documents not
appended thereto. The Court was not provided with an expert report for Dr. Baker
with the Opposition to the Motion for Summary Judgment, but his supplemental
report was included as an attachment to the Opposition to the Motion to Preclude
Mr. Jones, presumably because Mr. Jones adopted Dr. Baker’s reports in their
entirety. Therefore, Dr. Baker’s report is in the record of this case.

the Court hold Plaintiff to the letter of the Rules regarding timing and length of
filings. The Court applied the letter of those Rules and granted Defendant relief
sought, supra, as good cause appeared.
Rule 56(c)(3)(B) requires an opposition to a motion for summary judgment
that conforms to the structure of Rule 56(c)(3)(A). One purpose of that Rule is to
provide the Court with a clear record upon which the Court may make its rulings.
The record in front of this Court, in Defendant’s Opposition, is unfortunately far
from clear. There is no specific discussion of the claims and applicable law,
supported by clear reference to admissible evidence, in front of the Court. There is
no specific discussion of the counterclaims and applicable law, supported by clear
reference to admissible evidence, in front of the Court. Instead, the Court has a
document that touches on various issues here and there; does not clearly argue the
issues before the Court; does not provide clear, admissible evidence; and includes
immaterial facts.
That being said, portions of Defendant’s Opposition appear to the Court to be
focused on certain counts or claims, and the Court has attempted to consider those
as presented by Defendant. By way of example, Plaintiff moved for summary
judgment as to all of Defendant’s counterclaims; Defendant’s first counterclaim
alleged “violations” (plural) of the Federal and Arizona fair housing statutes.
Amended Ans. at 12. In her Counterclaim, Defendant alleged that Plaintiff “denied
the reasonable accommodation in violation of 42 U.S.C. § 3604(f)(3)(B) and A.R.S.
§ 41-1491.19(E)(2),” and the reasonable accommodation she requested “was to have
the Association pay for professional moving and temporary storage of personal
property.” Id. at ¶¶ 49, 53. The Court could not locate any admissible evidence in
support of this claim in Defendant’s opposition; for example, what would have been
the reasonable amount of moving and storage costs for reimbursement? What is the
basis for that sought amount? Defendant’s counterclaim pleading indicated Plaintiff
offered $1,200.00 and Defendant did not accept the offer, but a pleading is not
evidence. Defendant provided her recitation of facts on the issue in pages 6 through
9 of her Opposition to the motion for summary judgment. The Court notes that
Defendant declared under penalty of perjury that her Opposition was true and
correct. Opp. at 22. It is unclear whether Defendant intended for her Opposition to
SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY

be considered as an affidavit. Under Rule 56(c)(5), any affidavit must set out facts
that would be admissible in evidence and properly authenticated copies of
documents referred to therein must be included. In her Opposition’s discussion of
the issue, Defendant directed the Court to Attachment 5 to the Opposition. The
Court reviewed Attachment 5. It consists of e-mails exchanged between counsel as
part of settlement negotiations. Rule 408 of the Arizona Rules of Evidence precludes
the admission of such evidence. This is but one example of Defendant responding
in her Opposition to the Motion for Summary Judgment with the broad statement
that there are genuine issues of material fact3, and then failing to clearly set forth
those specific facts with the support of admissible evidence. The opponent of a
motion for summary judgment does not raise a genuine issue of fact by merely
stating in the record that one exists. “Rather, they must show that competent
evidence is available which will justify a trial on the issue.” Flowers v. K-Mart
Corp., 126 Ariz. 495, 499 (App. 1980). This brings the Court back to Rule 56(e).
“In deciding a motion for summary judgment, the trial court considers ‘those
portions of the verified pleadings, deposition, answers to interrogatories and
admissions on file which are brought to the court’s attention by the parties.’” Tilley
v. Delci, 220 Ariz. 233, 236 (App. 2009) (quoting Choisser v. State ex rel. Herman,
12 Ariz.App. 259, 261, (1970)). However, the Tilley court acknowledged in a
footnote that there are “differing views” as to whether the Court is expected to
perform an “independent search” of the record for facts not presented by a party
opposing summary judgment. Id. at n.4. In an abundance of caution, the Court has
taken the time to do so; its search was unsuccessful.
3 The Court recognizes that its consideration of Plaintiff’s Motion vis-à-vis
Plaintiff’s own claims, versus consideration of the Motion as to the counterclaims,
varies. Compare Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. v. Allen, 231 Ariz. 209, 213 (App. 2012)
(which applies to the motion as to Plaintiff’s claims) with Orme Sch. v. Reeves, 166
Ariz. 301, 309 (1990) (which applies to the Motion as to Defendant’s
counterclaims). Although Plaintiff’s Motion is silent on the distinction, this
particular example focuses on counterclaims.

In summary, the Court finds that Defendant failed to comply with Rule 56(c)
and summary judgment is appropriate; thus, per Rule 56(e), summary judgment
“shall” be entered against Defendant. The Court emphasizes that its ruling is not
merely a matter of “style over substance.” The Court has taken great pains to parse
through Defendant’s filings and the record, but the many issues outlined above result
in summary judgment being entered under Rule 56(e).
Finally, this is an action arising out of a contract, which entitles Plaintiff to
apply for an award of attorney’s fees. Lacer v. Navajo County, 141 Ariz. 392, 394
(App. 1984) (“A party is entitled to an award of its attorney's fees under A.R.S. §12-
341.01 if judgment in its favor is based upon the absence of the contract sued upon
by the adverse party”). In addition, the parties’ contract indicates attorney’s fees
may be awarded, and costs are awarded to Plaintiff as the successful party. “[T]he
superior court has no discretion to deny costs to the successful party.” Roddy v. Cty.
of Maricopa, 184 Ariz. 625, 627 (App. 1996).
Conclusion
Based on the foregoing,
IT IS ORDERED granting Defendant’s Motion to Strike Plaintiff’s Reply to
its Motion for Summary Judgment, filed February 3, 2022. Plaintiff’s reply to the
motion for summary judgment, which was filed December 17, 2021, is stricken.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED granting Defendant’s Motion to Strike
Plaintiff’s Response to Defendant’s Motion to Strike Plaintiff’s Reply to its Motion
for Summary Judgment, filed February 28, 2022. Plaintiff’s response to the first
motion to strike, which was filed on February 22, 2022, is stricken.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED denying without prejudice and as moot
Plaintiff’s Motion to Preclude Expert Testimony of Alan Jones, filed September 14,

JUDGE CAMPAGNOLO
MINUTE ENTRY
The Court has reviewed and considered Defendant/Counterplaintiff’s Request for
Extensive Disability Accommodations Prior to any Further Case Activities and Pursuant to ADA
Access Policy (the Request), the exhibits attached thereto, and the applicable law.
On March 17, 2020, Defendant completed the Maricopa County Superior Court’s ADA
form, which is attached as an exhibit to the Request. Based on her pleadings, the Court finds that
Defendant has disabilities that entitle her to ADA accommodations. Defendant is seeking the
following accommodations under the ADA:
1. Automatic, timely approval of extensions of time to respond to filings, meet deadlines,
attend hearings, etc. The Court will be notified of these automatic approvals by
telephone, either before or after the fact, but Defendant will “attempt” to notify the
Court in writing beforehand.
SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY
CV 2016-050453
04/17/2020
Docket Code 019
Form V000A
Page 2
2. Frequent breaks during hearings, depositions, etc.
3. Depositions to be limited to two hours, with a suggested accommodation that she could
attend more than one deposition per day.
4. Any deadlines or hearings that occur when she is ill, in surgery, hospitalized or
recovering from illness, surgery, or hospitalization shall be extended or rescheduled
to a sufficient time for Defendant to properly recover.
The ADA provides that “no qualified individual with a disability shall, on the basis of
disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of the services, programs,
or activities of a public entity, or be subject to discrimination by any public entity.” It also
provides that “[a] public entity shall make reasonable modifications in policies, practices, or
procedures when the modifications are necessary to avoid discrimination on the basis of
disability, unless the public entity can demonstrate that making the modifications would
fundamentally alter the nature of the service, program, or activity.”
Therefore, Defendant is entitled to “reasonable accommodations.” In that regard, the Court
finds that the following are reasonable accommodations to her requests:
1. The Court will timely consider all filed requests in writing for extensions of time
regarding deadlines, the filing of responses, or the rescheduling of hearings. The Court
will consider any such requests by telephonic notice in emergency situations only, with
the requirement that Defendant will have to file a written pleading regarding the
telephonic request within 15 days of the deadline or hearing, so that there will be a
written record of such request in the Court’s files.
2. The Court will allow Defendant to take reasonable and necessary breaks during
depositions and hearings as needed to accommodate Defendant’s disabilities.
3. The Court will allow depositions to be limited to a total of two hours per deposition,
which two hours shall not include breaks. This shall not prevent Plaintiff or Defendant
from seeking leave from the Court to extend a deposition to the time period allowed by
the Rules of Civil Procedure. Such a request for leave shall be filed prior to the
deposition with sufficient time to allow the other party to file a response in writing
within the time period allowed by the Rules of Civil Procedure. If this advance filing
is not feasible due to time restrictions or other constraints, a post-deposition motion for
leave to extend the time may be filed. The Court will not consider telephonic requests
to extend the deposition, while the deposition is in session. The parties can always agree
SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY
CV 2016-050453

Form V000A

to extend a deposition beyond two hours without Court involvement. If the deposition
breaks will encompass a lengthy period of time, such that it becomes unduly costly to
one or both parties to wait, the parties can agree to reset the remainder of the deposition
on another day, provided that the total length of the deposition will not exceed two
hours, not counting break times.
4. Only one deposition per day will be allowed. This means one deposition per day, not
one deposition per side per day. This accommodation is necessary, because the allowed
two-hour deposition period may encompass several hours, depending on the length of
reasonable and necessary breaks.
5. The Court will timely consider any requests to extend deadlines or reschedule hearings
based on Defendant’s illness, surgeries, hospitalizations, and reasonable recovery
periods from such illness, surgeries or hospitalizations. Defendant will have to file the
requests in writing ahead of time, unless she is prevented from doing so in emergency
situations. In emergency situations only, Defendant, or someone acting on her behalf,
may make such requests telephonically, but Defendant will have to follow up with the
filing of a written request for the extension or rescheduling no later than 15 days after
the illness, hospitalization, surgery or reasonable recovery therefrom. Any such
request, whether pre- or post-incident, must be accompanied by a letter or note from a
medical healthcare professional in support of the request. Any request for an extension
or rescheduling based on a recovery period after hospitalization or surgery will have to
be accompanied by a letter from the treating healthcare professional as to the reasonable
time period for such a recovery.
The Court finds that the following request is not a reasonable accommodation, and will not
be allowed:
6. The Court will not authorize an “automatic” granting of Defendant’s requests for
extensions of deadlines or rescheduling hearings. The Court has a legal duty to consider
all such requests on an individual basis, and to make a decision on a request-by-request
basis.
IT IS ORDERED that the above-stated reasonable accommodations numbered as 1 through
5 shall be in effect in this case, until further Order of the Court.

PO BOX 72107
PHOENIX AZ 85050
MINUTE ENTRY
On May 11, 2017 Defendant’s husband appeared at the Northeast Courthouse and rang
back to the chambers for the assigned division. Without disclosing who he was; he requested to
speak with court staff.
When the Judicial Assistant for the assigned Division went out into the public area,
Defendant’s husband approached the Judicial Assistant in a very loud, threatening and
accusatory manner. Among other things, Defendant’s husband accused this Judicial Officer of
committing fraud and of having ex parte communications with the opposing side in his wife’s
case.
After a few minutes, Defendant’s husband handed the judicial assistant several
documents including a May 11, 2017 filing entitled “Defendant Kathryn Marie Jones’s 3rd Notice
to the Court of a Scheduling Conflict Regarding the June 2, 2017 Hearing on Plaintiff’s
Application for an Order to Show Cause and Request for Sanctions; In Addition to a Pre-Trial
Conference.”

Defendant’s husband attempted to engage the Judicial Assistant in a conversation re: the
underlying case. The Judicial Assistant kindly reminded Defendant’s husband that she was not
permitted to discuss anything about the case with him—as he is not a party.
Due to the manner in which Defendant’s husband has presented himself,
IT IS ORDERED that only the Defendant, Kathryn Marie Jones or a licensed attorney
who has been retained by the Defendant, Kathryn Marie Jones and who has filed a notice of
appearance in this case, may contact the assigned judicial division on behalf of Defendant,
Kathryn Marie Jones. If any other person contacts the assigned division on behalf of the
Defendant, Kathryn Marie Jones; judicial staff has been instructed to terminate the telephone call
or terminate the in-person contact.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that if Defendant’s husband appears at the Courthouse for
any hearing that the Defendant, Kathryn Marie Jones may have in the future, a Maricopa County
Sherriff Deputy and/or Court Security, shall be present to ensure the safety of all involved.
Turning to the May 11, 2017 filing entitled, “Defendant Kathryn Marie Jones’s 3rd Notice
to the Court of a Scheduling Conflict Regarding the June 2, 2017 Hearing on Plaintiff’s
Application for an Order to Show Cause and Request for Sanctions; In Addition to a Pre-Trial
Conference”; the Court is concerned with the language contained within the “Notice” as it is
written in the third person. If the Defendant, Kathryn Marie Jones, is not the individual writing
the notices, motions and/or briefs that are being filed with the Court, than it must be done by a
licensed attorney who has filed a notice of appearance in this matter. If the filings are created by
anyone else, it equates to the unauthorized practice of law that is prohibited by State law.
With respect the contents of this most recent filing—it is not a “3rd Notice to the Court of
a scheduling conflict regarding the June 2, 2017 hearing”. Nevertheless, this Court will consider
the filing as another request to continue a hearing that has been set in this matter.
For purposes of the record, the Court provides the following:
On April 26, 2017, Plaintiff e-filed a Motion to Continue Hearing on Plaintiff’s
Application for Order to Show Cause and Request for Sanctions (Expedited Ruling Requested).
Attached to the motion was a proposed form of order for this Court to electronically issue—
should the motion be granted.
The Court found good cause for the Plaintiff’s Motion to Continue and on May 1, 2017
1issued the order Vacating the OSC hearing set on May 8, 2017 at 9:00 a.m. and continued the
1 due to the order being issued via electronic docket on May 1, 2017—the Clerk’s office electronically file stamps the order for 8:00 a.m. the
following business day

same to June 2, 2017 at 3:30 p.m. Also, for judicial economy this Court vacated the Pretrial
Conference that was previously set on June 9, 2017 at 8:30 a.m. and set it to be heard at the same
time on June 2, 2017.
Coincidently, Defendant Kathryn Marie Jones filed a Motion to Continue the May 8,
2017 hearing on May 1, 2017, the same date the Court issued its order continuing the May 8,
2017 hearing. As the Court had already granted a Motion to Continue the May 8, 2017
hearing—no action was taken by the Court and the motion was deemed moot. Unfortunately, the
date and time set by the Court had already issued and was set at a time that was not convenient
for the Defendant, Kathryn Marie Jones.
One week later, on May 8, 2017, Defendant filed “Defendant/Counterclaimants’
Opposition to Plaintiff’s Order to Show Cause and Request for Sanction”. This filing requires no
action by this Court—and will be read and considered by the Court prior to the Order to Show
Cause hearing in this matter.
As indicated previously, the Court will consider this May 11, 2017 filing as a Motion to
Continue the June 2, 2017 hearing on Plaintiff’s Application for Order to Show Cause and
Request for Sanctions and the Pre-Trial Conference. Defendant, Kathryn Marie Jones has
advised this Court of a conflict she has on June 2, 2017 with another matter that has been set
before Judge John Hannah of this Court. Judicial staff has confirmed that there is a hearing set
before Judge Hannah on the afternoon of June 2, 2017.
Therefore good cause found,
IT IS ORDERED granting “Defendant Kathryn Marie Jones’s 3rd Notice to the Court of a
Scheduling Conflict Regarding the June 2, 2017 Hearing on Plaintiff’s Application for an Order
to Show Cause and Request for Sanctions; In Addition to a Pre-Trial Conference”—considered
by this Court as a Motion to Continue the June 2, 2017 hearing on Plaintiff’s Application for
Order to Show Cause and Request for Sanctions as well as the Pre-Trial Conference.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED vacating the June 2, 2017 hearing and resetting the same to
June 28, 2017 at 9:00 a.m. (90 minutes), in this division.

In preparation of the upcoming evidentiary hearing in this matter, the Court discovered
that Defendant/Counter-claimant filed a document on May 26, 2017 entitled “Defendant Kathryn
Marie Jones’s Correction of the Caption to her Opposition Document Filed on May 8, 2017; and
Defendant’s Objection to the Designation of her May 1, 2017 Motion to Continue filing as

The Court finds that the May 26, 2017 filing is not in conformance with Local Rule
3.1(e).
Therefore,
IT IS ORDERED striking the May 26, 2017 filing entitled “Defendant Kathryn Marie
Jones’s Correction of the Caption to her Opposition Document Filed on May 8, 2017; and
Defendant’s Objection to the Designation of her May 1, 2017 Motion to Continue filing as

The Court has reviewed and considered Defendant/Counterclaimant’s Rule 12(b)(1)
Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction; Plaintiff’s Response thereto,
Defendant’s Amended Reply; the Complaint; the Amended Answer and Counterclaim; any other
relevant filings; and the applicable law. Neither party requested oral arguments, and the Court
finds that oral arguments would not significantly assist the Court in ruling on the Motion. See
Maricopa County Local Rule 3.2(d).
Although the Motion is brought under Rule 12(b)(1), portions of the Motion seemed to be
more akin to a Rule 12(b)(6) Motion. The Court may review its subject-matter jurisdiction at any
time. Rule 12(h)(3), ARIZ. R. CIV. P. To the extent that any of Defendant’s relief is sought under
Rule 12(b)(6), it is untimely, and shall not be considered for that purpose.

JUDGE CAMPAGNOLO
MINUTE ENTRY
Due to the delay in jury trials caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, this Court is not setting
any jury trials at this time, except for those cases that have already been set for trial, which have
had to be vacated or will have to be vacated due to the lack of jurors. Those cases are being reset
to 2021 at this time, due to the Court's trial calendar, which is double-booked, and sometimes
triple-booked through 2020. The Court does not believe it is fair to set jury trials on cases that
have not previously been set for trial, which would then place vacated jury trials in a subsequent
position.
Therefore, this Court is re-scheduling the trial setting conference in this case to August, at
which time the Court is hopeful it will have more clarification on the status of currently-set jury
trials, as well as the expectation of juror availability for unset civil cases. The Court believes that
it is better to reset this trial setting conference by Minute Entry, rather than requiring the parties
and/or attorneys to expend time attending a hearing that will be rescheduled.

The parties have an absolute right to proceed by jury trial, and this Court is not in any
way suggesting or directing that the parties waive that Constitutional right. However, if the
parties and counsel believe that it is appropriate, they may agree to proceed by a bench trial
before this Judicial Officer, or the parties may agree to a bench trial before a Judicial Officer of
their mutual choosing, provided that the parties have obtained the agreement and availability of
an agreed-upon Judicial Officer. If the parties choose either of these options, they will need to
file a stipulation that they waive a jury trial, and choose to proceed by bench trial, as provided
above, so that this Court can issue the appropriate Minute Entry.
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the trial setting conference scheduled for July 10,
2020, at 8:30 a.m. is reset to August 27, 2020, at 8:45 a.m. (15 minutes allotted). The parties shall
have their calendars available for this proceeding.
Counsel for the Plaintiff shall initiate the conference call by arranging the presence of all
parties and contacting this Division’s courtroom directly at (602) 372-0537 at the time indicated
above.

COURT ADMIN-CIVIL-ARB DESK
JUDGE CAMPAGNOLO
MINUTE ENTRY AND AMENDED SCHEDULING ORDER
The Court has reviewed and considered Defendant/Counterplaintiff Kathryn Marie Jones’
pleading entitled “Title II Americans with Disabilities Act Accommodations Request Grievance
Complaint Filed with the Presiding Judge Pursuant to ADA Access Policy Section 5
Proceedings, and Her 2nd Request for a Stay of All Further Case Activities which was Originally
Ignored by the Court Which Has Directly Caused Personal Injuries to Occur.” The Court has also
considered Ms. Jones’ previous pleadings, the Court’s Minute Entries and Orders relevant to this
pleading, and the applicable law.
On March 10, 2020, this Court granted a stay of all proceedings to April 20, 2020 to
allow Ms. Jones’ to attempt to retain legal counsel.
On April 20, 2020, the Court issued a Minute Entry regarding Ms. Jones’ ADA requests.
The Court found that Ms. Jones has disabilities that entitle her to ADA accommodations.
Pursuant to that finding, the Court basically granted all of her requests, except that it did not

Docket Code 083
Form V000A

grant her request that all motions for extensions or delays would be automatically granted
without the Court reviewing the requests on a motion-by-motion basis, which the Court found
not to be a reasonable accommodation.
Ms. Jones’ current pleading disputed the manner in which the Court handled her requests
in 2017, and objected to the Court’s decision not to stay this case for an indefinite period of time,
based on her disabilities. The current pleading does not contain any specific requests that would
fall within the Court’s Minute Entry of April 20, 2020, except for the general request that this
case should be stayed indefinitely. Ms. Jones did not place a time period in which a stay would
end. The Court has previously granted Ms. Jones’ request for certain ADA accommodations. The
Court cannot stay this matter indefinitely. This case has been pending since February 25, 2016, a
period in excess of four years. The Court finds that Ms. Jones’ request for an indefinite stay of
the proceedings is not a reasonable accommodation.
In reviewing the pleadings in this case, the Court realized that the Scheduling Order was
not amended to account for the period in which this matter was stayed. To ameliorate the delay,
the Court, on its own motion, is entering a third amended scheduling order.
IT IS ORDERED that the portion of Defendant/Counterplaintiff Kathryn Marie Jones’
pleading entitled “Title II Americans with Disabilities Act Accommodations Request Grievance
Complaint Filed with the Presiding Judge Pursuant to ADA Access Policy Section 5
Proceedings” is referred to Court Administration.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the portion of Defendant/Counterplaintiff Kathryn
Marie Jones’ pleading entitled “Her 2nd Request for a Stay of All Further Case Activities which
was Originally Ignored by the Court Whish Has Directly Caused Personal Injuries to Occur” is
denied.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Third Amended Scheduling Order is entered, as
follows:
1. The parties shall simultaneously disclose their rebuttal expert opinions by July 31,
2020.
2. The parties shall disclose all lay witnesses by July 31, 2020.
3. Each party shall provide final supplemental disclosure by August 31, 2020. This order
does not replace the parties' obligation to seasonably disclose Rule 26.1 information on
an on-going basis and as it becomes available.

4. No party shall use any lay witness, expert witness, expert opinion, or exhibit at trial not
disclosed in a timely manner, except upon order of the court for good cause shown or
upon a written or an on-the-record agreement of the parties.
5. The parties will propound all discovery undertaken pursuant to Rules 33 through 36 by
July 31, 2020. The parties will complete the depositions of parties, lay witnesses, and
expert witnesses by August 15, 2020. The parties will complete all other discovery by
August 15, 2020. (“Complete discovery” includes conclusion of all depositions and
submission of full and final responses to written discovery.)
6. The deadline for a settlement conference passed on January 14, 2020, which was prior
to the filing of the Motion to Stay. The settlement conference deadline shall not be
changed.
7. The parties shall file all dispositive and Daubert motions by September 15, 2020.
Failure to file such a motion as to an expert’s qualifications by the deadline shall
constitute a waiver of (1) any objection that an expert is not qualified to render expert
testimony, and/or (2) any objection that any opinion of the expert should be excluded
under ARIZ. R. EVID. 702, and/or (3) A.R.S. §12-2604.
8. The parties previously estimated the number of days for trial to be 4 days.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Minute Entry filed on June 25, 2020 that rescheduled
the trial setting conference to August 27, 2020 at 8:45 a.m. is vacated.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the trial setting conference is rescheduled from August
27, 2020 at 8:45 a.m. to October 9, 2020 at 10:30 a.m. (15 minutes allotted). Attorneys and self-
represented parties shall have their calendars available for the conference. Plaintiff’s counsel will
initiate the conference call by arranging for the presence of all other counsel and self-represented
parties, and by calling this division at (602) 372-0537 at the scheduled time.

DOCKET - NE
JUDGE BACHUS
MINUTE ENTRY
Pending before the Court is Plaintiff/Counterdefendant’s Amended
Application for Attorneys’ Fees and Costs, filed May 2, 2022, which is fully
briefed. After reviewing all filings associated with the application, as well as
applicable Rules and law, the Court makes the following findings and enters the
following orders:
Fees
The Court previously concluded that fees under A.R.S. § 12-341.01 may be
awarded. 4/18/22 Minute Entry at 10. Per A.R.S. § 12-341.01(A), “In any
contested action arising out of a contract, express or implied, the court may award

MARICOPA COUNTY
CV 2016-050453
07/25/2022
Docket Code 901
Form V000A
Page 2
the successful party reasonable attorney fees.” Because Plaintiff’s motion for
summary judgment was granted, Plaintiff is the successful party.
The Court has considered the factors set forth in Associated Indemnity Corp.
v. Warner, 143 Ariz. 585, 589 (App. 1983), and finds as follows:
1. Whether the unsuccessful party’s claim or defense was meritorious. The
Court does not make a finding on whether Defendant’s claims were meritorious.
The Court granted Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment under Rule 56(e) of
the Arizona Rules of Civil Procedure. The Court notes that to the extent
Defendant’s opposition to the instant application for fees and costs is a motion for
reconsideration, that motion is denied.
2. Whether the litigation could have been avoided or settled and the successful
party’s efforts were completely superfluous in achieving the results. Based on its
review of the extensive filings in this case, the Court concludes litigation could
have been settled years ago. Some actions by Defendant actions unnecessarily
prolonged the matter. Plaintiff’s efforts were not superfluous to achieving the
results. Indeed, Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment was filed as the parties
continued to disagree as to the fundamental issues in the case. Ultimately, the
Court concluded in its Order filed April 18, 2022 that Defendant failed to comply
with Rule 56(c) and summary judgment was appropriate.
3. Whether a fee award would be an extreme hardship. In her Opposition,
Defendant claimed she only has access to her modest Social Security income.
Plaintiff disagreed. After considering the filings, the Court does not conclude an
extreme hardship would result from a fee award.
4. Whether the successful party prevailed with respect to all of the relief
sought. Plaintiff prevailed in the litigation, as its motion for summary judgment
was granted. Again, the motion was granted under Rule 56(e) as a result of
Defendant’s failure to comply with Rule 56(c).
SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY
CV 2016-050453
07/25/2022
Docket Code 901
Form V000A
Page 3
5. Whether the matter presented a novel legal question. The matter did not
present particularly novel legal questions. The Court also finds the issues were not
complex.
6. Whether the award would discourage other parties with tenable claims or
defenses from litigating them. The Court does not find that an award would
discourage parties with tenable claims or defenses from pursuing them.
The Court finds that an award of fees is appropriate under A.R.S. § 12-
341.01(A). The Court does not conclude that a fees award is appropriate under any
other theory claimed by Plaintiff.
The next issue is to determine the amount of reasonable attorney’s fees.
Although Defendant did not contest the reasonableness of any of the fees
requested, and instead devoted her Opposition to other issues (including whether
fees should be awarded at all), the Court has reviewed the entries in counsels’
affidavits for reasonableness.
In support of its amended application for fees, Plaintiff provided the Court
with an affidavit by each of its counsel (Mssrs. Bolen and Humble, respectively).
Mr. Bolen’s amended affidavit covered the six-year period of this entire litigation,
including appeals and special actions brought by Defendant, and the total
contained at the end was $139,131.50. Mr. Humble’s affidavit began in 2019 and
ended in 2022, with a total “billable” at the end of $96,857.60. However, in the
amended application, the requested for “counterclaims” was $93,117.00. There
was no explanation as to the difference in the figures. When the Court added the
amount of requested fees at the end of Bolen’s affidavit ($139.131.50) and the
amount of fees for counterclaims ($93,117.00), the total amount of requested fees
came to $232,248.50.1
1 Unfortunately, the amended application contained no breakdown for how counsel
arrived at the total, sought amount of fees and costs. Specifically, the body of the
amended application first asked for a total of $242,034.75, then went on to request
$93,117.00 in fees and $7,637.33 in costs for the counterclaims brought by
SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA

At the outset, the Court observes that the total requested amount of fees is
substantial – nearly a quarter of a million dollars billed by multiple lawyers and
paralegals for litigation that was not particularly novel or complex. That being
said, the litigation has gone on for years and Defendant has been, at times, less
than cooperative in moving the matter forward. The Complaint was filed in
February 2016. A previous judicial officer denied a request for a “stay” after
Defendant’s then-counsel was disbarred, which led to another judicial officer
entering default judgment against Defendant in December 2017. Defendant’s
appeal of that sequence of events was successful. Upon remand in January 2019,
the current round of litigation commenced. The successful motion for summary
judgment, which concerned both Plaintiff’s claims and Defendant’s counterclaims,
was filed in September 2021 and granted in April 2022.
“[W]here a party has accomplished the result sought in the litigation, fees
should be awarded for time spent even on unsuccessful legal theories. Where a
party has achieved only partial or limited success, however, it would be
unreasonable to award compensation for all hours expended, including time spent
on the unsuccessful issues or claims. For example, when the plaintiff sues on a
note, and the defendant successfully counterclaims, fees awarded to the plaintiff
may be reduced to reflect the defendant’s success.” Schweiger v. China Doll
Defendant. There was no mention of fees and costs for Plaintiff’s affirmative
claims, and there was no explanation as to how or why the fees and costs were
delineated in that fashion. Then, in its conclusion, the application requested
$242,034.75 in fees and costs. The application gave no breakdown for that
number. Instead, the application referred the Court to “Exhibit A.” Exhibit A
began with a Declaration by Mr. Humble and his billing entries, but the entries did
not total the sought amount of $93,117.00. The Court went on to read the billing
entries for Mr. Bolen, which totaled $139.131.50. Therefore, the Court was able to
piece together that $242,034.75 represents $139.131.50 in fees for Mr. Bolen +
$93,117.00 in fees for Mr. Humble + $2,148.92 in costs for Mr. Bolen + $7,637.33
in costs for Mr. Humble. A clear breakdown in an application for fees and costs
would conserve judicial resources.

Restaurant, Inc., 138 Ariz. 183, 189 (App. 1983) (citing Pioneer Constructors v.
Symes, 77 Ariz. 107, 112 (1954)). “There is no precise rule or formula for making
these determinations.” Hensley v. Eckerhart, 461 U.S. 424, 436 (1983) (quoted in
Schweiger, 138 Ariz. at 189).
Here, Plaintiff was successful in the totality of the litigation, despite its
initial default judgment being reversed by the Court of Appeals.2 However, the
Court finds it appropriate to reduce the requested fees.
First, the fees award should not reward Plaintiff for its lack of success before
the Court of Appeals on Defendant’s second appeal. Nor will the Court award fees
expended by Plaintiff for the aspects of the litigation that were ultimately reversed
on appeal.3 Consequently, the Court disallows the following entries, for a total of
$38,320.00:
Bolen affidavit: All entries between April 4, 2017 (beginning with the
entry “Review and Analyze Notice Regarding Defendant Kathryn Jones’s
Request for a Stay in the Proceedings”) and August 30, 2017 (ending
with the entry “Leave detailed voicemail with J. Graves discussing the
Notice of Appeal from K. Jones”), with the exception of two entries on
April 12, 2017. Those two entries are “Review and analyze minute entry
from the court striking letters filed my (sic) K. Jones from the record”
(for counsel) and “Receive and review Minute Entry from Court striking
Jones’ letters” (for a paralegal). The Court finds the latter two entries are
duplicative and the Court does not find that .4 hours by two people was
2 Defendant filed two appeals. Although Defendant did not prevail on her first
appeal, Defendant did obtain a reversal of the default judgment against her in her
second appeal (filed in December 2017 and reversed and remanded in January
2019).
3 In so doing, the Court recognizes that a handful of entries reflect that settlement
efforts were made during that period of time. However, those efforts were made
against the backdrop of Plaintiff’s ultimately unsuccessful position on appeal, and
the Court declines to award fees for that period of time.

required to analyze that Order, given the Order’s simplicity. The
paralegal’s time is disallowed. The total amount of fees disallowed for
this period is $8,784.50.
Bolen affidavit: All entries from September 8, 2017 through October 5,
2017, for a total of $1,812.50.
Bolen affidavit: All entries from December 11, 2017 through January 2,
2019, with the exception of one entry on December 11, 2017 labeled
“Analyze letter from Court of Appeals dismissing appeal.” The Court
allows the latter entry because it pertains to an appeal by Defendant that
was unsuccessful. The total disallowed for this period is $27,723.00.
Next, the Court disallows fees expended for Plaintiff’s reply to its motion for
summary judgment because the Court struck the reply upon Defendant’s successful
motion to do so. The Court further disallows fees associated with both of
Defendant’s motions to strike because those motions were granted by the Court. It
is baffling to the Court why Plaintiff claimed these fees given its reply was stricken
and the motions to strike were granted. The total disallowed is $8,183.50. This
figure represents the exclusion of the following fees claimed:
Bolen affidavit: All entries from November 30, 2021 through December
16, 2021 (entry labeled “Email exchanges with Scott Humble and Norm
Sagon regarding Reply to Motion for Summary Judgment”), with the
exception of a December 6, 2021 entry labeled “Call with Scott Humble
regarding Reply to Motion to Preclude Alan Jones.”
Bolen affidavit: All entries from February 4, 2022 through March 3,
2022, with the exception of a March 3, 2022 entry labeled “Receipt and
review disclosure regarding Jones selling her Unit.”
Bolen affidavit: The March 8, 2022 entry labeled “Review and modify
second motion to strike response.”

Humble affidavit: December 3, 2021 entry labeled “Review and analyze
additional exhibits from Jones’ response to motion for summary

Humble affidavit: Entries beginning on December 7, 2021 through
December 16, 2021.
Humble affidavit: January 28, 2022 entry labeled “Communicate (other
outside counsel) by telephone with co-counsel T. Butterfield regarding
possible motion to strike” through January 31, 2022 entry labeled
“Review and analyze options relating to Jones’ request for motion to
strike in preparation for possible withdrawal of reply.”

“Draft/revise email to co-counsel J. Bolen regarding response to pending
motion to strike from Jones” through March 4, 2022 entry labeled
“Draft/revise email to co-counsel J. Bolen regarding strategy.”
The Court further disallows fees regarding the sale of Defendant’s
condominium after the Court issued its ruling on the motion for summary
judgment. Whether the unit was sold had no bearing on the outcome of the
SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY

litigation at that point.4 Thus, the fees for the entry on April 20, 2022 labeled
“Receipt and review new owner information” ($174.00) on the Bolen affidavit are
disallowed.
After considering each entry in the affidavits, the case history, the number
and qualifications of counsel, the hours expended, the nature of the claims, and the
relevant case law, the Court finds attorney’s fees in the amount of $150,000.00 to
be reasonable and appropriate.
Costs
Plaintiff has requested a total of $9,786.25 in costs, which represents
$2,148.92 in costs incurred by Mr. Bolen’s firm and $7,637.33 in costs incurred by
Mr. Humble’s firm. The Court has reviewed the statements of costs filed pursuant
to A.R.S. § 12-346. Defendant did not object to specific costs; as noted above,
Defendant argued other points in her Opposition, including whether the Court
should award costs at all. She did not challenge specific line items. However,
upon review of the Bolen statement of costs, the Court finds that certain costs
should be excluded. Those costs are:
Filing fees for documents filed in support of Plaintiff’s ultimately
unsuccessful default judgment will not be awarded. These fees are:
TurboCourt $6.70 on 4/18/17 + TurboCourt $6.70 on 4/18/17 + TurboCourt
$6.70 on 4/26/17 + TurboCourt $6.70 on 8/23/17 + TurboCourt $6.70 on
8/23/17 = $33.50.
Similarly, filing fees for Plaintiff’s unsuccessful position on Defendant’s
second appeal will not be awarded. These fees are: Clerk of the Arizona
$140.00 on 2/13/18 + TurboCourt $6.70 on 5/24/18 + TurboCourt $10.61 on
4 The Court disagrees with Defendant’s assertion in her Opposition that because
she sold the property in question, the case is “moot.” The sale of the property in
2022 does not reverse the course of the litigation and what transpired between
2016 and 2022.

6/28/18 + TurboCourt $6.70 on 10/1/18 + TurboCourt $10.61 on 10/31/18 +
TurboCourt $10.61 on 11/1/18 + TurboCourt $10.61 on 11/1/18 = $195.84.
It also appears Plaintiff is attempting to recoup its costs for the reply that
was stricken and its responses to unsuccessful motions to strike. The Court
does not find those costs should be awarded. These costs are TurboCourt
$6.70 on 12/16/21 + TurboCourt $6.70 on 2/22/22 + TurboCourt $6.70 on
3/8/22 = $20.10.
The process server fee, postage, and courier service fees that were incurred
in support of the proceedings that were reversed in Defendant’s second
appeal will not be awarded. Those fees are $65.40 Nationwide Legal Ser on
5/31/17 + $30.00 Nationwide Legal Ser on 6/26/17 + $40.00 Nationwide
Legal Ser on 9/22/17 + $12.84 UPS on 6/23/17 + $6.71 Postage on 4/26/17

Postage on 9/28/17 = $196.05.
Certified copy and judgment costs for the default judgment that was reversed
on appeal will not be awarded. Those costs are $29.50 Clerk of the Superior
on 9/29/17 + $10.00 Maricopa County Recorder on 10/5/17 = $39.50.
Transcript costs incurred in support of Plaintiff’s unsuccessful position on
appeal will not be awarded. Plaintiff listed that total cost as $135.30.
Finally, “legal fees” payable to “Ahwatukee Legal Office” in the amount of
$841.52 on March 11, 2019 were billed. No further explanation was
provided, and the Court cannot determine what those additional “legal fees,”
when Plaintiff had multiple counsel at that point, would be.
Thus, the total amount of fees disallowed from the Bolen statement of costs
is $1,461.81 ($33.50 + $195.84 + $20.10 + $196.05 + $39.50 + $135.30 +

$841.52). After subtracting the amount of disallowed fees ($1,461.81) from Mr.
Bolen’s requested fees ($2,148.92), the amount to be awarded vis-à-vis Mr. Bolen
is $687.11.
The Court does not disallow any costs listed by Mr. Humble.
Thus, the total amount of costs to be awarded in this matter is $8,324.44
($687.11 + $7,637.33).
Conclusion
Finally, the Court declines to change, at this extremely late stage of the
litigation, its description of Defendant from “Kathryn Jones” to “Kathryn Jones,
Trustee of the KMJ Trust,” as Plaintiff suggested in its application for fees and
proposed form of judgment. While it may be true that Ms. Jones is the trustee and
sole beneficiary of the KMJ Trust, the KMJ Trust is not a named party to this case.
Indeed, a trust may not even represent itself in litigation. Plaintiff sued Defendant
Kathryn Jones in her personal capacity. The Court will enter judgment against
Kathryn Jones.
Therefore, based on the foregoing,
IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff shall be awarded $150,000.00 in reasonable
attorney’s fees, and $8,324.44 in recoverable costs, for a total amount of
$158,324.44.
No matters remain pending in this case. This is a final judgment under Ariz.
R. Civ. P. 54(c). IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED granting Plaintiff’s Amended
Application for Attorneys’ Fees and Costs, filed May 2, 2022.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED entering judgment against Plaintiff and in
favor of Plaintiff and its counsel, Joshua Bolen and Scott Humble, in the amount of
$158,324.44, plus interest at the legal rate of 6.75% as of this date, for Plaintiff’s

ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE
RESOLUTION - CCC
JUDGE BACHUS
MINUTE ENTRY
The Court is in receipt of Ms. Jones’ Motion for Reconsideration, filed July 16, 2021, and
Request for ADA Accommodations due to New, Increasing Disabilities and Medical
Comorbidities, filed July 7, 2021. The Court has reviewed the filings, applicable case law and
rules, and enters the following orders:
First, the motion for reconsideration is denied, as no good cause appears.
Second, as to the July 7, 2021 ADA accommodations request contains the following three
requests:
1. “At least twice the designated length of time to research, write, type and file motions,
responses, replies, etc.”: In his October 28, 2020 minute entry, Judge Campagnolo
granted Ms. Jones’ request for this accommodation. Specifically, he ordered that Ms.
SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY
CV 2016-050453

Docket Code 023
Form V000A
Page 2
Jones “shall be allowed twice the amount of time than provided by the Rules of Civil
Procedure to file a response or reply to any pleadings in this matter.” 10/28/20 Minute
Entry at 2. Deadlines were then set for motions. Id. The Court finds this remains a
reasonable accommodation under the ADA. The order of Judge Campagnolo granting
Ms. Jones twice the amount of time allowed under the Rules is affirmed.
2. “To file all documents in 14-point font – thus automatically approving her necessity to
file more than the designated page limits”: The Court observes the request for
accommodations was typed in 14-point font. Ms. Jones will be allowed to type her
filings in 14-point font, but this accommodation is not a blanket approval for an unlimited
page limit. For motions and responses, the page limit for Ms. Jones shall be expanded
from 17 to 22 pages. For replies, Ms. Jones’ page limit shall be expanded from 11 pages
to 14 pages. The expansions are allowed to accommodate the 14-point font. To set those
limitations, the Court has tested documents in Word with both font sizes (allowed under
the Rules and expanded to 14-point font) to determine the increased page needs for the
same text with increased font size.
3. “All court proceedings requiring [Ms. Jones’] presence (whether in person or by
telephone) be limited to three consecutive hours per day”: In support of this request, Ms.
Jones points to the deposition orders contained in the Court’s April 17, 2020 minute entry
about ADA accommodations. In that minute entry, the Court limited depositions to be a
total of two hours per deposition, one deposition per day, with breaks to be
allowed. 4/17/20 Minute Entry at 2-3. As the Court noted in the April 2020 minute
entry, the ADA provides that a public entity must make “reasonable modifications in
policies, practices, or procedures when the modifications are necessary to avoid
discrimination on the basis of disability, unless the public entity can demonstrate that
making the modifications would fundamentally alter the nature of the service, program,
or activity.” Id. at 2. However, a jury trial is not the same as a deposition. Deposition
guidelines would not apply to a trial day, and that was apparent in Judge Campagnolo’s
order setting trial. He set trial, with the shortened day, with breaks, for the lengthy period
of time that it is set (11 days) after already having set limits on depositions. The Court
has carefully reviewed the orders of Judge Campagnolo. When trial was set, Judge
Campagnolo built in certain, reasonable accommodations, including the shortened trial
day. See 10/28/20 Minute Entry at 3 (“Trial hours will be from 9:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
and 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. (with a lunch recess from noon to 1:30 p.m. and two 15-
minute recesses, daily), Monday through Thursday”). The further requested modification
to only have three hours of total time in court per day is not reasonable to how the Court
must function with respect to administering a jury. The Court has not received sufficient
cause to deviate so far from how the Court tries cases to a jury. Of course, as Judge
Campagnolo ordered in April 2020, the Court “will allow [Ms. Jones] to take reasonable
SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY

Form V000A
Page 3
and necessary breaks during [] hearings as needed to accommodate” her
disabilities. 4/17/20 Minute Entry at 2. That order includes trial. To determine
reasonableness, documentation from Ms. Jones’ medical provider(s) would greatly assist
the Court. Requesting documentation of same is permissible under the ADA.
Judge Campagnolo’s prior orders, including those regarding ADA accommodations, are
affirmed, except where superseded or vacated by this Court. Previously-ordered deadlines for
motions and trial remain in place. The trial date is a firm date. Trial will go forward on the dates
ordered by Judge Campagnolo, during the hours specified by Judge Campagnolo (with needed
breaks), unless the parties reach settlement. If the matter is settled, the parties shall promptly
notify the Court and trial will be vacated.
In addition, this Division has been contacted by the Superior Court’s Alternative Dispute
Resolution (ADR) office, which has informed the Court that Ret. Judge Fields has requested
another mediator be appointed. The Court will grant the request and order the appointment of a
replacement mediator. Consequently, on its own motion, the Court will extend the time for ADR
to be completed by 60 days. ADR shall be completed no later than October 31, 2021. Both
parties shall fully cooperate with the ADR process. The Court notes this is the third mediator
appointment that is being made in this matter; no further appointments will follow.
It is so ordered.

JUDGE BACHUS
MINUTE ENTRY
The Court is in receipt of (1) “Preliminary Motion to Intervene Pursuant to
Rules 1, 19, 24a, 24b, and 60; Extraordinary Request for Immediate Stay or
Injunction to Preclude Manifest Loss of Appeal Rights by Defendant, Kathryn
Jones, Request for Immediate Telephonic Hearing re: ADA Accommodations to
Permit Completion of Motion.,” filed August 19, 2022 by third party Alan Jones;
(2) “Defendant/Counterclaimant’s Rule 12(b)(1) Motion to Dismiss for Lack of
Subject Matter Jurisdiction,” filed by Kathryn Jones on August 22, 2022; and (3)
Plaintiff’s “Notice to Court Regarding Post-Judgment Motions by Defendant and
Third Party,” filed September 7, 2022.
On July 27, 2022, the Court entered final judgment in this case with Rule
54(c) language. The motions filed by Mr. Jones and Ms. Jones followed, and the
Court was holding those for responses when the Notice of Appeal was filed. Upon

filing of the Notice of Appeal, jurisdiction over this matter went to the Court of
Appeals. “A superior court ‘retains jurisdiction to act so long as that act cannot
negate the decision in a pending appeal or frustrate the appellate process.’” Bank
of New York Mellon v. Dodev, 246 Ariz. 1, 2 (App. 2018) (quoting State v.

Util. Co., 120 Ariz. 184, 193 (1978)). To address the motions brought by
Mr. Jones and Ms. Jones would run afoul of that case law. The Court notes,
however, that it corrected a scrivener’s error in the September 7 judgment.
At this juncture, without direction from the Court of Appeals, this Court will
take no further action on this matter.
It is so ordered.

9:35 a.m. Matter concludes.
NOTE: All Court proceedings are recorded digitally and not by a court
reporter. Pursuant to Local Rule 2.22, if a party desires a court reporter for any
proceeding in which a court reporter is not mandated by Arizona Supreme Court
Rule 30, the party must submit a written request to the assigned judicial officer at
least ten (10) judicial days in advance of the hearing, and must pay the authorized
fee to the Clerk of the Court at least two (2) judicial days before the proceeding.
The fee is $140 for a half-day and $280 for a full day.
Requests for interpreters, court reporters or video conference must be made
at least fourteen (14) days prior to the trial/hearing date.
Trial time will be divided between Plaintiff(s) and Defendant(s). The Court
reserves for itself 4.5 hours for the Court to do its portion of voir dire, read
preliminary and final jury instructions, and for jury deliberations. The parties will
then be splitting the remaining time for each party's portion of voir dire, opening
statements, witness examinations, and closing arguments. The Court uses a timer
to keep track of your time. When you are out of time, you are out of words.
Based on the trial setting, the Court sets the following deadlines and makes
the following orders. The dates set forth in this order are firm dates and will not be
extended or modified by this Court absent good cause. Lack of preparation will not
ordinarily be considered good cause.
DUTIES BEFORE THE FINAL TRIAL MANAGEMENT
CONFERENCE
MOTIONS IN LIMINE. All motions in limine shall be filed no later than
5:00 p.m. 20 calendar days prior to the Final Trial Management Conference.
Written responses to motions in limine may be filed no later than 10 calendar days
after service of the motion. No replies shall be filed. The Court may hear argument at
the final trial management conference or may rule without oral argument. The parties
must comply with Ariz. R. Civ. P. Rule 7.2(a) before filing any motion in limine.
SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY
CV 2016-050453
10/04/2021
Docket Code 064
Form V000A
Page 5
Each side will be limited to filing no more than 5 motions in limine. However,
either side may file a brief of unlimited length addressing evidentiary issues
anticipated to arise at trial.
JOINT PRETRIAL STATEMENT. The parties shall file with the Court no
later than 5:00 p.m. 7 days prior to the Final Trial Management Conference, a
Joint Pretrial Statement, signed by all counsel (and any self-represented party) and
containing the following. This order modifies the requirements of Ariz. R. Civ. P.
16(f).
1. List of Claims. The Joint Pretrial Statement must contain a list of all
claims or causes of action on which a verdict is sought by any party. Such
list shall specify (1) the cause of action (e.g., breach of contract,
negligence, etc.), (2) each party asserting that cause of action, and (3) each
party against whom that cause of action is asserted.
2. No List of Issues. The requirements of Ariz. R. Civ. P. 16(f)(2)(A), (B)
and (C) are waived. The parties need not prepare a list of stipulations,
agreed contested issues or other issues considered material. Disputes over
what issues are properly in the case will be decided under Rule 26.1. The
parties may, if they wish, submit one or more separate stipulations
regarding facts, evidence or other matters.
3. Summary of the Case for Jury Selection. The Joint Pretrial Statement
must include an agreed-upon brief (generally less than 200 words)
summary of the case for jury selection purposes. If the parties cannot agree,
they must submit separate proposed summaries.
4. Final Trial Witnesses. The Joint Pretrial Statement must include an
exhibit entitled Final Trial Witness List, which must list each witness a
party expects to call at trial (in person or by deposition) and the day on
which they expect to call that witness. If the Court finds that a party
unreasonably included witnesses not likely to be called at trial, it may
consider appropriate sanctions.

Docket Code 064
Form V000A
Page 6
5. Trial Exhibits. As required by Rule 16(f)(E), all trial exhibits must be
listed in the Joint Pretrial Statement along with objections. The Court
typically resolves objections to exhibits at trial, but objections must be
listed in the Joint Pretrial Statement to be preserved. If the Court finds that
a party unreasonably included exhibits not likely to be used at trial, it may
consider appropriate sanctions.
6. Deposition Designations. Deposition designations and objections should
not be included in the Joint Pretrial Statement, but must be submitted to the
Court three judicial days before the start of trial. The Court will resolve
deposition designations as follows: By 4:00 p.m. the day before a party
plans to read deposition testimony, that party must provide the Court a hard
copy of the deposition transcript with (1) the portions to be read
highlighted, (2) any counter-designations highlighted in a different color,
and (3) any objections written in the margin. The Court will rule on any
objections by the next day. If the party plans to play a video deposition, the
transcript must be provided by 4:00 p.m. two days before the deposition
will be played.
7. Other Matters. The Joint Pretrial Statement must include the matters in
Ariz. R. Civ. P. 16(f)(2)(H) - (M).
JURY INSTRUCTIONS; VOIR DIRE. The parties shall meet and agree on
as many proposed jury instructions as possible. The parties shall file with the Court,
with their Joint Pretrial Statement, copies of:
1. Proposed voir dire questions.
2. Agreed-upon preliminary and final jury instructions and proposed forms
of verdicts.
3. Separate sets of requested instructions that have not been agreed upon.
Recommended Arizona Jury Instructions (“RAJI”) may be referred to by

name without reprinting, but if the RAJI contains options for the Court the
party should indicate which options it is requesting.
Jury instructions not requested by the final trial management conference will
be deemed waived unless good cause exists for the untimely request.
SETTLEMENT. The parties are reminded to promptly notify the Court of
any settlement pursuant to Ariz. R. Civ. P. 5.3(d). One day’s jury fees will be
assessed unless the Court is notified of settlement before 2:00 p.m. on the judicial
day before the trial.
DUTIES AT TRIAL MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE
At the final trial management conference, the parties shall be prepared to
discuss:
1. The claims and parties as to which a verdict is sought.
2. The length of the trial and any time limits to complete the trial in the
allotted time.

for exhibits that will be provided at a later date. Any missing exhibits
will not be considered and the numbers of all following exhibits will be
moved up. If Defendant’s exhibits are received prior to Plaintiff’s
exhibits, the clerk may mark them first with Plaintiff’s exhibits
following.
2. Original depositions will not be marked as an exhibit. Original
depositions to be used for impeachment purposes shall be provided to the
clerk on the first day of trial to be hand-filed.
3. Do not submit duplicate exhibits. It is essential that the parties confer
to avoid submitting duplicate exhibits.
4. If large charts or enlarged photos are anticipated to be used, please

6. Do not put numbers on the exhibits themselves; instead, use a
COLORED sheet with the exhibit number on it. Place the colored
sheet in front of each exhibit, however, DO NOT staple or paper-clip it
to the exhibit itself (this should be the only loose sheet).
7. The parties are to provide a workable list of exhibits. The list should
include a title or description of each exhibit. (See blank sample of the
following table as a reference). Keep the descriptions of the exhibits
simple. Do not use a description that cannot be verified by looking at the
first page of document or item. Do not include Bates numbers in your
description of the exhibits, as they do not constitute a simple description.
8. If media files or video-recordings are anticipated to be submitted for
marking, please submit them on thumb-drives, not on a CD, and deliver
them to the Clerk of Court at the time of exhibit submission. A separate
thumb-drive must be used for each file.

to hear argument, the argument will be heard at the FTMC. No replies shall be filed.
Motions in limine titles are expected to contain the identifying party, the type of motion,
the number, and the specific subject to which the motion is addressing. For example, “Plaintiff’s
Motion in Limine No. 1 Re: Expert Witness”. Unless prior written leave of Court is obtained for
good cause shown, no party may file more than three (3) motions in limine, including all subparts
and the motions shall be no more than three (3) pages in length. The parties shall not file motions
denominated as “in limine” that are, in substance, late-filed motions for summary judgment.
MOTIONS: All motions, including but not limited to dispositive and Daubert motions,
other than motions in limine, shall be filed according to the deadlines set in the Court’s
Scheduling Order. The deadline for any motion brought for a Daubert hearing or brought under
ARIZ. R. EVID. 702, is the same as the dispositive motion deadline. Failure to file such a motion
by the date in the Scheduling Order shall constitute a waiver of (1) any objection that the expert
is not qualified to render expert testimony, and/or (2) any objection that any opinion of the expert
should be excluded under ARIZ. R. EVID. 702.
JOINT PRETRIAL STATEMENT. The parties shall file with the court no later than 10
days before the Final Trial Management Conference pursuant to Ariz. R. Civ. P. 16 (f), a Joint
Pretrial Statement, signed by all counsel (and any self-represented party) and containing the
following:
1.
List of Claims. The Joint Pretrial Statement must contain a list of all claims or causes
of action on which a verdict is sought by any party. Such list shall specify (1) the cause of action
(e.g., breach of contract, negligence, etc.), (2) each party asserting that cause of action, and (3) each
party against whom that cause of action is asserted.

List of Stipulated and Contested Issues. The requirements of Ariz. R. Civ. P.
16(f)(2)(A),(B) and (C) shall be followed. Disputes over what issues are properly in the case will be
decided under Rule 26.1.
3.
Summary of the Case for Jury Selection. The Joint Pretrial Statement must include
an agreed-upon brief (generally less than 200 words) summary of the case for jury selection purposes.
If the parties cannot agree, they must submit separate proposed summaries.
4.
Final Trial Witnesses. The Joint Pretrial Statement must include a Final Trial
Witness List, which must list each witness a party expects to call at trial (in person or by deposition),
the day on which they expect to call that witness and the estimated testimony time of witnesses. If
the court finds that a party unreasonably included witnesses not likely to be called at trial, it may
consider appropriate sanctions.
5.
Trial Exhibits. As required by Rule 16(f)(2)(E), all trial exhibits must be listed in the
Joint Pretrial Statement along with objections. The court typically resolves objections to exhibits at
trial, but objections must be listed in the Joint Pretrial Statement to be preserved. If the court finds
that a party unreasonably included exhibits not likely to be used at trial, it may consider appropriate
sanctions.
6.
Deposition Designations. Deposition designations and objections should not be
included in the Joint Pretrial Statement. Deposition designations must be submitted to the Court at
the same time the Joint Pretrial Statement is due. The court will resolve deposition designations as
follows. Counsel must provide the court a hard copy of the deposition transcript with (1) the portions
to be read highlighted, (2) any counter-designations highlighted in a different color, and (3) any
objections written in the margin.
7.
Other Matters. The Joint Pretrial Statement must include the matters in Ariz. R. Civ.
P. 16(f)(2)(H-M).
JURY INSTRUCTIONS; VOIR DIRE The parties shall meet and agree on as many
proposed jury instructions as possible. At the time of the filing of the joint pretrial statement, the
parties shall file and are required to provide the Court with a (CD), in word format, and a sanitized
copy of:
1.
An agreed-upon set of proposed preliminary and final jury instructions (All case
citations and RAJI references removed from the draft); and
2.
Proposed verdict forms, and voir dire questions and any additional jury instructions.

3.
In the event that the parties disagree on a particular jury instruction, both parties’
proposed jury instruction shall be included in the draft proposed jury instructions with the
notation “Disputed” in the name of the instruction.
Jury instructions not requested by the final trial management conference will be deemed
waived unless good cause exists for the untimely request.
SETTLEMENT. The parties are reminded to promptly notify the court of any settlement
pursuant to Ariz. R. Civ. P. 5.3(d). One day’s jury fees will be assessed unless the court is notified of
settlement before 2:00 p.m. on the judicial day before the trial.
TIME ESTIMATES FOR TRIAL. Time Estimates for Trial attached hereto shall be
submitted on the same date as the parties’ Joint Pretrial Statement as ordered herein.
In the event evidence or testimony is objected to on the basis of non-disclosure, the parties
should be prepared at trial to demonstrate compliance or non-compliance with Rule 26.1. This is
usually done by showing the court disclosure statements, so those must be available in the
courtroom.
TRIAL MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE
At the final trial management conference, the parties shall be prepared to discuss:
1.
The claims and parties as to which a verdict is sought.
2.
The time designated for trial and, if necessary, time limits.
3.
Any scheduling or equipment issues.
4.
Voir dire.
5.
Any special issues regarding exhibits or deposition designations.
6.
Preliminary jury instructions.
7.

8.
Motions in limine.
9.
The potential for settlement before trial.

9:32 a.m. Matter concludes.
**Counsel please review the information below**
Becoming familiar with the Court’s requirements is crucial, failure to comply with any of
the requirements can and will delay any resolution to the issue. The Court reserves the right to
reject or hold in abeyance any motion that does not meet the requirements listed below or on the
online profile. The Court also follows the guidelines that are required pursuant to the Arizona
Rules of Civil Procedure and expects counsel and individuals representing themselves to do the
same.
Counsel are encouraged to visit Judge Campagnolo’s online profile for information on
the Court’s expectations regarding motion practices and requirements, discovery disputes, and
hearing/trial procedures at the following website:
http://www.superiorcourt.maricopa.gov/JudicialBiographies/judges/profile.asp?jdgID=327&jdg
USID=12118
Pay particular attention to the following when submitting Motions:
Multiple Motions in One: This division requires that all motions, responses, replies and
other pleadings in this case must be submitted individually. The parties shall not combine
any motion with a responsive pleading. All motions are to be filed separately and
designated as such. No pleadings will be accepted if filed in combination with another.

Motions with Exhibits: Bookmarking and hyperlinking in pleadings is encouraged. See
Rule 5.2(c)(3)(A), Ariz. R. Civ. P. All e-filed pleadings, including, but not limited to,
summary judgment pleadings, that contain more than 5 exhibits shall contain
bookmarks/hyperlinks to all exhibits attached to your pleading(s). All
bookmarks/hyperlinks must be contained in your e-filed pleading in pdf format. The
bookmarking/hyperlinking to exhibits is crucial, so that the Court can readily locate an
exhibit without undue delay. The Court does not want hard copies of the exhibits, and the
Court does not want the materials on thumb drive or email. DO NOT bookmark or
hyperlink case citations. Any bookmarks/hyperlinks to any websites or the internet (e.g.,
Westlaw) will not work. Failure to provide the bookmarks/hyperlinks as required above
will result in the issuance of a Minute Entry rejecting the pleading. The party will be
required to efile a new pleading with proper bookmarking/hyperlinking no later than 14
days after the filing of the Minute Entry rejecting the original pleading. The Court
reserves the right to disallow any pleadings that are not re-efiled within 14 days. You
may obtain further information on e-filing with bookmarks under Section 2.03(b) of the
following webpage:
https://efiling.clerkofcourt.maricopa.gov/efilingguidelines/#formattofefileddocuments
I am aware that some attempted bookmarkings/hyperlinkings may be unsuccessful due to
software incompatibility with the Clerk's software, or because the documents' size
exceeds the Clerk's capacity. In those situations, upon the filing of a notice to that effect
signed by the party's attorney, the bookmarked/hyperlinked document may be submitted
to the Court on a CD.
